G29 Racing Wheel Pedals for Rudder - braking question

Featured Replies

Looking for some thoughts on braking as I do not use a rudder pedal set with toe brakes, I already owned a Logitech G29 racing wheel and have been trying to make that work. The pedals are the standard automotive 3 pack so I have the clutch and accelerator pedals bound to left and right rudder and that has been working great! Both are Axis control so the fine adjustments are possible, taxi is easy and I don't have too many issues with single prop torque on take off once you get the feel for it.

My main issue has been braking - since the pedal brake is like a car, there's a lot of resistance once you get to about 60% of the axis, and you really need to push to hit 100% braking power. This is not ideal when trying to land and use rudders to keep on center (three pedals but only two feet!) I do have a backup keybind for full brakes on the yoke, but I'm curious if anyone else is using non-standard rudder pedals and how they get around the issue.

I've been fiddling with the sensitivity settings to get the brakes to full without needing to push as hard, but its finicky. How do toe-brakes differ? Do they have an axis as well, or do you typically just go full on and wait for the plane to stop?
